We're dividing 58879 by 72 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 72 in 58879.

Moving on to step 1:
72 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 58 / 72

Going ahead to step 2:
72 goes into 58 0 times with a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 0 from 58.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 58 and continue: 588 / 72

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 588 by 72, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 576 from 588.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 127 / 72

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 72 fits into 127 1 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 81.0
If we take 72 away from 127, we end up with 55.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 55 and repeat the process: 559 / 72

Step 5:
72 can be fit into 559 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 55.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 817.0
Deduct 504 from 559 and we're left with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 550 by 72, we get 7 with a remainder of 46.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 817.7
If we take 504 away from 550, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
72 goes into 460 6 times with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 817.76
If we subtract 432 from 460, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 280 3 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 817.763
Subtract 216 from 280 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 640 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 64.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 817.7638
Subtract 576 from 640 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 640 by 72, we get 8 with a remainder of 64.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 817.76388
If we take 576 away from 640, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 817.76388 and a remainder of 6.4e-05.
